The battle began.
Terrifying blazing flames swept out in all directions. Li Huo's back was straight, and his entire body was wrapped in raging flames, as if he had turned into a sun.
He pushed forward with astonishing boldness.
The evil insect let out a sharp cry, and a black mist spread out from its body, corroding and destroying everything.
"Bastard!" Li Huo suddenly clenched his fist. The fiery light in his hand turned into a dazzling sword blade. He suddenly slashed down.
The fire sword tore the black mist apart like the first ray of light that split the world apart.
Although its attacks were invincible, the black mist covered a large area. Overall, the area of influence of the mist was still increasing.
"Maintain the formation!"
As a member of the local committee, Wang Shi was naturally present. He was currently holding a small array diagram in his hand. This was one of the eight nodes of the array diagram. The other seven nodes were scattered in various corners of the academy.
Ping Xuerou and a dozen other cultivators stood behind Wang Shi, forcefully extracting the spiritual energy in their bodies and gathering it into Wang Shi's body.
The eight trigrams runes were faintly discernible in the void, binding the mist. No matter how they spread, they were only limited to the area of the small district.
"Ang!" A sharp cry suddenly came out from the mouth of the evil insect.
The faces of the surrounding cultivators who hadn't yet officially entered the True Human Realm turned pale, and beads of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads.
"Oh no, it's mental corruption."
Ping Xuerou forced herself to stay focused. She felt the world she could see gradually blurring, and she bit her lower lip forcefully. The pain and the taste of blood in her mouth woke her up a little.
However, three or four cultivators beside her could not hold on and fainted on the ground. The Eight Trigrams Formation was on the verge of collapse.
"We're in big trouble." Wang Shi's voice was hoarse, and his expression was extremely ugly.
As the members behind him were affected, their spiritual energy could not be supplied to the activation of the Eight Trigrams Formation. He was now trying his best to mobilize the power in his body and squeeze out every bit of spiritual energy in his body…
But even so, it was only barely enough to prevent the Eight Trigrams Formation from being completely damaged.
"After all, who would have thought that such a monster would appear here?”A middle-aged man with an equally pale face said in a low voice.
The Jiang Prefecture was a small place, and the cultivators in such places were far inferior to those in large areas. Wang Shi, who was at the True Human Realm, could be the captain of the local cultivator army and become one of the eight nodes of the current Eight Trigrams Array.
This was evident.
" Wait." Ping Xuerou suddenly sensed something. Her pupils constricted and her voice trembled." Captain, something's wrong with Xu Qing."”
Xu Qing was one of the members who had fallen to the ground.
Those who were still conscious cast their gazes on Xu Qing's body. In the end, they discovered that his body was twitching, and his exposed skin was slowly turning black. There were even pieces of scales slowly emerging from under his skin.
"…Mutation."
Someone's lips trembled, clearly frightened by the scene in front of him. His voice trembled as he spoke of the knowledge he had once read in the teaching book," Evil Gods…cannot be looked at directly!
The evil god's kin also inherited this characteristic. If a human with a huge difference in strength visualized the evil god's descendant, they would gradually mutate into an evil being.”
" Damn it." Wang Shi's eyes were wide open and bloodshot.
"Idiot, didn't I say this in the knowledge class? During a battle, he absolutely could not consider the living form of the evil creatures on the other side. He could not be afraid of them?”
Everyone fell silent. They did know about this, but this was the first time they had faced an evil creature with such a huge difference in strength as mentioned in the teaching materials. That was why someone had fallen for it.
" Ping Xuerou." Wang Shi's expression changed a few times. He made up his mind and said in a low voice," I order you in the name of my captain to evacuate with Xu Qing…It's just the initial infection. It's not a big problem."”
" But…" Ping Xuerou opened her mouth. If she left now, what would happen if the Eight Trigrams Formation could not supply her with spiritual energy?
"Obey my orders!" Wang Shi's voice was hoarse. The muscles on his body bulged again, and the spiritual energy gathered in his palm at the intersection of the array diagram increased by 20%.
"Captain, if you continue to squeeze yourself like this, your future cultivation path will…"
"Don't say anymore. Shouldn't the captain go up at a time like this?”
Wang Shi's expression was very calm. He had already made up his mind." Moreover…if I don't get rid of the evil god's followers on the other side, everyone here today will die. I'm not the only one left."”
"This is really…something amazing.”A long sigh suddenly sounded.
"…What?" Ping Xuerou, who had just taken a few steps away, paused. She suddenly felt that this voice was a little familiar.
Wang Shi's pupils suddenly contracted. He turned his head and found a young man with red pupils and a windmill spinning inside standing there quietly.
"It's you?" Wang Shi shivered, almost unable to maintain the array diagram.
It was too shocking. Although he did not remember Lin Tian's face clearly last time, this time, when he saw those distinctive eyes, he immediately confirmed the identity of the person in front of him.
But how could he be so young? Could it be the legendary old monster whose cultivation had reached the extreme realm and had returned to his youth?! Wang Shi's mind was filled with thoughts.
Lin Tian ignored Wang Shi. He stared expressionlessly at the evil insects in the distance.
? Today, he finally solved one of his doubts. Why was there no news of evil gods among the ordinary people?
It was possible for one to be transformed by visualization…Only cultivators who had undergone special training and had extremely strong self-control could control themselves.
If the news of evil gods spread among the people, there would definitely be people who would seek death and attempt to visualize them, and there would be quite a number of them…At that time, evil phenomena would bloom everywhere, and many of them would be transformed from local residents. The situation would definitely be dozens of times worse than it was now…
"How long can you last?" Lin Tian suddenly spoke.
Wang Shi was stunned for a moment before he realized that Lin Tian was asking him a question. He made some calculations in his heart and gritted his teeth as he replied,"The minimum is five minutes, the maximum is ten minutes."”
After five minutes, his Essence Qi sea would be irreparably affected.
He had no hope of advancing in this lifetime, and if he continued to persist for more than ten minutes, he might lose all his strength after this battle and be crippled.
"Five minutes?"
The windmill in his pupils slowly rotated. Lin Tian said softly,"There's enough time."”
He took a step forward and stepped into the battlefield. He opened his palm and aimed it in the direction of the evil insect's kin. He spat out two cold words.
"Dark Water!"
